Confused baby koala takes ride on dog's back

Oct. 7 (UPI) -- A South Australia man captured video when a confused baby koala hitched a ride on the back of his equally confused dog.

The dog's owner, identified only as Henry, said he let the canine, Tony, out into the yard of his Adelaide Hills home to do his business Sunday morning and moments later he found Tony was struggling to shake a koala joey off his back.
